VINCENZO BELLINI Luciano Pavarotti: I Capuleti E I Montecchi 2 CD Set MINT 1966 I Capuleti e i Montecchi (The Capulets and the Montagues) is an Italian opera (Tragedia lirica) in two acts by Vincenzo Bellini. The libretto by Felice Romani was a reworking of the story of Romeo and Juliet for an opera by Nicola Vaccai called Giulietta e Romeo and based on the play of the same name by Luigi Scevola written in 1818, thus an Italian source rather than taken directly from William Shakespeare. Vincenzo Bellini was the supreme melodist of the great bel canto triumvirate that also included shops Gioacchino Rossini and Gaetano Donizetti: the three outstanding representatives of the early 19th-century Italian style whose name literally means beautiful singing . Singers have always loved Bellini s long-breathed vocal writing, and I Capuleti is the first example of that style we know so well from his later, more famous masterpieces La sonnambula, Norma and I Puritani.
